The Role of Multiple Literacies in Developing Interdisciplinary Research

The classification of knowledge into different disciplines is not to distinct knowledge of one domain from the

other as these are the parts of a whole but to make it easy, and to provide space for development and

promotion of knowledge. Interdisciplinary research provides the opportunity to study different domains of

knowledge from single perspective so that to reach to an eclectic picture of the phenomenon. Results showed

that interdisciplinary research contributes a lot in promoting interdisciplinary faculty’s relationships and joint

ventures in exploring the unseen facts. Multiple literacies are powerful indicators in promoting

interdisciplinary research culture and disciplinary literacy of faculty. Multiple literacy theory emphasize on

the componential development of language development which is corner stone for multiple literacies.

Faculty’s literacy in Information Communication Technology (ICT), Statistics and critical thinking/ problem

solving skills are foundational for multiple literacy of faculty.

KEY WORDS: Multiple Literacies, Interdisciplinary Research, Statistical Literacy, ICT
